CasaBlanca Gastronomia e Eventos

What CasaBlanca Gastronomia e Eventos does

CasaBlanca Gastronomia e Eventos is a privately held São Paulo–based catering company founded in 1985, specializing in customized gastronomy for corporate events, celebrations, and trade fairs in Brazil. The company operates from a 750 m² headquarters on Av. Imperatriz Leopoldina that houses administration, a central kitchen, an on-site gourmet kitchen, and fully equipped event rooms used for tastings. Its service offering spans three core products — full-service buffet for events ('Buffet para Eventos'), coffee-break and light refreshments ('Coffe-Break'), and dedicated corporate gastronomy ('Gastronomia para Empresas') — supplemented by venue rental and tasting-space add-ons.

The business is led by partners Afonso Polly Junior and Sandra Orso Polly and runs an in-house field team of waiters, dishwashers, cooks, maîtres, nutritionists, and food-safety specialists. CasaBlanca operates a direct, enterprise field-sales motion, serving large Brazilian corporates across F&B (BRF, Ambev), banking (Bradesco, Febraban), industrial (Gerdau, Siemens), consumer goods (Unilever, Natura), automotive (Hyundai), and other sectors; the company also caters at large venues such as Transamérica Expo Center and has held the Apas trade fair account for 11 consecutive editions.

The revenue model is professional-services based — fees are charged per event for customized catering, staff, and event support, with no publicly disclosed pricing or contract terms. CasaBlanca is entirely founder-owned, with no institutional investors, subsidiaries, or parent entities disclosed, and its operating geography is concentrated in Southeast Brazil. Beyond commercial work, the company maintains a portfolio of social-responsibility partnerships (Casa de Misericórdia, AACD, Rotary Club, Associação Comercial de São Paulo) and a vocational-training partnership with Sub-Prefeitura de São Paulo that doubles as a talent pipeline.
